From "A Castle South of Edinburgh: Crichton: About Scotland: Crichton
Castle, Midlothian (http://www.aboutscotland.com/crichton/castle.html):
"William, the Third Laird of Chrichton, having conspired against James
III in 1483, was besieged at Crichton Castle and forced to flee. King
James gave the castle and its lands to his favourite, Sir John Ramsey,
who he created Lord Bothwell. But he too became involved in treachery
and so Crichton was given to Patrick Hepburn, Lord Hailes who became Earl
Bothwell."
